My pro kit dropped the car right away also. You did put the end of the springs in the right spot right. I've seen alot of people just throw the springs in and not put them in the pockets correctly.

Yes, they must be postioned correctly and also the bottom coil must sit in the same place left rear to right rear and left front to right front...otherwise the car will not sit evenly.

Eibach Springs don't settle in, they have already been cycled. What does settle in is the worn bushings, etc. Preload the suspension when doing the install.
